1) The document derives an equation to calculate the velocity of an accelerating spaceship over time by considering infinitesimal changes in velocity and using the velocity addition formula. 2) This yields an equation showing velocity is equal to the speed of light multiplied by the hyperbolic tangent of acceleration times time over the speed of light. 3) The document then introduces the concept of rapidity, defined as the time integral of acceleration, and shows that rapidities add through simple addition while velocities add through a more complex formula.
